Stock S3 BT issues only with PIONEER headunit... - T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII

As the title says, I am having issues getting connection. I have unpaired it, started completely over and still the only way I can Get it to play is physically going into Bluetooth and then click media to check mark. Sometimes have to do this 3-4 times before it clicks on.
I just started having these issues with it. Not sure if it is my deck or phone. It used to auto connect and play flawlessly for months. It still auto connects fine with phone calls, just the media portion is messing up.
Anyone else have any issues like this?
Deck is a Pioneer 9400HDBT.
Any help would be much appreciated.

I have the same issue at times on my pioneer head unit...some ROMs work better then others ...running xperiaZ from jovy and I get connected pretty consitently . I have a feeling its the head unit more then the ROMs though...there's times where my phone says I'm paired but the head unit still flashing the Bluetooth icon. Think I have the 3400bh but I'm not in my car ATM to verify
Edit: 3400 ..phone connects fast for the most part but music tends to be iffy. Dont think its rom related at all.

I used to work at sprint and the s3 has blue tooth known issues. I assume it would be the same being the blue tooth hardware is essentially the same. I always told people to root their phones and load a custom stable rom and it fixes the problem of those few that did. Sorry I couldn't help much

Galaxy s3 not finding car Bluetooth

I just got my gs3 from Rogers, and the phone works great but for some reason it does not find/detect my car's inbuilt Bluetooth system. My gs2 worked with no issues but my gs3 does not find the device when scanning . The Bluetooth worked when connecting to friends iPhone but not with my car. Anyone know what might be the cause?
My car is a 2011 BMW X6.

I have this problem too, ford focus with sync. It will detect it when I first pair the devices, but then it won't connect again after the connection has been disconnected. I have to forget the bluetooth connection and re-pair the phone with my car bluetooth to get it to work. Mine too is the Rogers version of the S3.

I can pair the phone once this way, but afterwards it will never connect again. Have to forget the connection and start again.

Try turning off your bluetooth and then turning it back on before you start the car.
Mine had the same issue (JVC stereo, Telus SGS3) until I hit the "initialize" option in the stereo. After re-pairing the phone it's worked great for 4 days.

I noticed that my Bluetooth issues went away with the latest AT&T OTA update from last week. I understand yours was on Rogers, but assuming you'll eventually (if you don't already) have access to the same update.
Bluettoth Issue on all stock TW based ROMs
What I have noticed is that I have had this issue on all Sammy based ROMS. Had no issues on the AOKP ROMS. On the Sammy ICS ROms the phone pairs but keeps switching between call audio and media audio in bluetooth. It sticks at call audio once you manually chose call audio and disconnect media audio in Bluetooth once it has paired.
I agree with you. I issues have gone after LG1 OTA update. Thanks

Bluetooth Music Random Reboot

Okay, here is the deal:
No matter what TOUCH WIZ ROM I run, about 20-25 minutes into listening to music over BLUETOOTH in my car, my phone will randomly reboot, after it boot, it will not be connected to BT automatically, I have to manually connect it.
This DOES NOT happen on ANY AOSP ROM. My fiancee has a stock UNROOTED E4GT and it DOES NOT happen to her either.
Anyone have a clue what I can do?
Thanx,
Tee Jay

[Q] Can't Play Audio Through HTC a100 Car

Anyone else have issues with the HTC Car StereoClip also known as HTC a100 Car?
I turn it one, pair and connect, set car to auxillary, open music app and get nothing. But other Bluetooth devices work just fine.
Any help or ideas is greatly appreciated!
Looks like there are not many of those...is it really that good? Worth to buy? And for how much did you bought yours? And where you got yours from?
Sorry to answer your question with offtopic questions.
I believe I read somewhere that this works with the note2 with no problems

For what it's worth, I have the HTC car dongle and the note 2 and they work together perfectly.

What the hell am I doing wrong?
Sorry to be such a noob but what are you doing, how do you connect? Are you rooted? With what ROM?
Sent from my SPH-L900 using xda premium
I am using a stock, unrooted Note 2. Just make sure that you follow the directions of the HTC device and connect. I also use an app from the playstore called A2DP volume. My phone and car bluetooth automatically connect when I get in the car and then I have set up this app to automatically connect to the HTC whenever my car and phone connect. I hope that this makes sense.

This makes no sense. I have tested with multiple stereos (my car and a stereo boombox) and multiple ROMs. Nothing works. I can pair to the A100, the SGN2 detects and connects properly (from what I can tell) but no music from it. When I use the standard cable, the headphone icon appears and music plays just fine. With just the A100 I get not headphone icon and no music playing.
I even went to completely stock ROM with no changes and nothing done to it but my Google account entered.
Strange because I tested the device with my previous HTC phone and it worked flawlessly. Any other thoughts? This makes no sense!!
Sorry, have you tried to reset the HTC dongle?

Try to press and hold ON/OFF button more then 10 seconds. Then A100 will "reset" blink red and turn off.
Jelly Bean 4.1.2 is the main issue

I think the main problem of the streaming audio bluetooth failure is... jelly bean 4.1.2 . hope in future upgrade to 4.2.2 fix all problems
I tried to with 2 different devices:
1) Tablt Asus Transformer Prime TF201 jelly bean 4.1.1 streaming is great :cyclops:
2) Samsung galaxy S II/III jelly bean 4.1.2 no audio output :crying:
Evdidence of this will be when people upgrade their Htc One (other device that have been issues with a100) to Jelly bean 4.2.2
however compliments HTC customer service .....poor...poor....
Hi,
Jelly Bean 4.2.2. does not fixed the problem
I use a HTC One, and I´m really angry about this ****.
Any recomendations maybe?

Which ROMs have working BT streaming music?

No it wasn't. Calling works on Bluetooth but others also reported music not playing.
For me, every time I connect the Bluetooth headphone my phone slows and eventually ill have to reboot because of no screen wake

CM 10.1 20120203 - BT audio fixed, according to 30 people in the thread. Unless I can't read. Did you wipe cache/dalvik?
Yes. I did a clean install... I just went back to the thread to make sure I'm not going crazy. Two or three pages from the last post some people explained having the same issue.
I can get the music to play fine until the screen goes off. Then I'll have to restart the phone. I've already tested it 4 times and still get the same results.

Bluetooth help for 4.3 update

I'm starting this thread to start a conversation that hopefully leads to a solution. Since updating to 4.3, Bluetooth has been wonky. It worked perfectly at first, but now it won't transmit any data. From searching, I can tell I'm not the only one with the issues, but no one wants to help the people who have pleaded for help.
Now, I will clarify that I am using two devices that use the apt-x profile. I have a Plantronics bt headset that does use this and I have a little more luck connecting with that.
The info I've found in searching is erratic at best, but no clear solution is stated. So, if you know a fix, let me/everyone know here. You can also share about roms where Bluetooth connections have been working for AT LEAST a week since everyone's bt works at first.
At the very least, subscribe to the topic if you can so that you can come back and share any progress or tips you might stumble on. Thanks.

I've been using the S3Rx 3.0 rom for almost a week without any Bluetooth issues. You can find it here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2252932
I've noticed some volume variances when notifications come in, but nothing that would qualify as a malfunction.

Well, that rom had the same issues as the rest as of a few days ago.
Now trying the latest Intergalactic (4.1). May give Quantum a shot next.
I'll keep uploading this thread since it is getting plenty of views from folks who may be having the same issues or on the same search.

I am now certain there is either an app causing my issues (highly unlikely) or there is simply an issue with bluetooth on the 4.3 update (most likely). It has been a frustrating journey. I'm not sure what else to do at this point.
I am currently using my third Galaxy S3 (long story) and all have had the same issues with the 4.3 update. AT&T Next is looking more attractive these days.

Sounds like a bug in the Bluetooth stack. Did you do all the formats available? Sometimes past ROMs will mess with the WiFi and bluetooth stacks. I suggest a full format, including system and /data/data
